  • I have not yet learned how to effectively dink but am attempting to learn
  • I tend to pop the ball up and/or hit the ball out of bounds
  • I am working on stroke mechanics for forehand, backhand, volleys & dinks with some increasing accuracy, consistency & pace
  • I can sustain longer lasting slow paced rallies
  • I sometimes attempt forehand lobs with varying degrees of success
  • I am beginning to approach the non-volley zone to hit volleys
  • I am beginning to navigate the transition zone and get to the net without getting caught mid-court with some success.
  • I am learning the importance of the drop shot drop but use mostly lobs
  • My court coverage is weak but improving
  • I mostly try to keep the ball in play as opposed to hitting the ball low, with pace or placing the ball.
